What I'm trying to say is that you're going to lose anyway...SA are in their conditions with their crowd and bat too far down to be bowled out by a mediocre attack in a few dozen overs...probably.

That is what they told us in Multan. That is what they told us in karachi. That is what they told us in Kandy.

I am not saying we can do it everytime...but we done it enough to give us some hope they can pull it off. Not all of us collapse after scoring 500.

the difference is pakistan are not bottlers like england and we won't go down without a fight. england bottled it in the ashes and gave up from day1.

:30: you chat a load of BS ... you call our attack mediocre ... look at your attack full of trash like the most overrated bowler in the world Harmison and Sajid Mahmood who are no more than friendly village bowlers... if we lose the match at least we can be assured players like Rana and Iqbal won't be retiring because they know they are not good enough for this version of the game. (cough-Harmison-cough). We will go down putting up a fight at least, unlike Englands spineless bunch so called cricketers.

what a pathetic post. so we don't get harris out let play him all day because after all we are gonna lose. this is not england team.
 
Good thing now is that Kallis should dry up the runs with his Dravid like attitude
 
Amazing things have happened in Cricket ...The match ain't over till the fat lady sings ..but yes SA batting is very deep ...and they don't have "specialists" like Bhanjaa in their batting line up
 
Kallis and Prince are the key for me. They bring some sanity and some calmness to a small run chase as this.
 
Daryll Cullinan is a pathetic commentator ...

"Was it bat or pad first ? Pad first. Probably missing the leg stump then."

I agree it was not an lbw at all ... but the way he is just way too biased is disgusting ... he was his own self in the India-SAF series too
 
I just thought to myself...Mushy was here the last tiem we a test here. A first indication or measure of Mushys effectiveness is how well Danish will do. Mushy knows these conditions and we got his protege and leg spinner bowling.

Now Danish is coming from around the wicket....why? You are negatng the LBW aspect which can play a huge role with flippers and balls which are gonna stay or skid low. Ridiculious.
 
:)) winding you guys up on matchday is getting too easy...must admit, the whole 'insult your team instead of stick up for my own' response is getting a bit tiresome to read!

You are acting like a troll on purpose. Expect the barrage and stop complaining.

We did stick up for our team. We told you we have hope and you do not cricket. But than you come up with another stupid response. Weren't you making fun of Easa yesterday for his stupid posts (supposedly)? Maybe one should look at one self first before judging others.
 
I would get after Asif a bit more, he isn't getting a lot out of the wicket and he is already unsettled by his no-ball problem.

I've admitted I was trolling - you're a bit behind!
 
Another no ball. To be honest Asif is giving runs and looking ineffective. I would bring on Hafeez. 89-3

10 overs from kaneria and still no wicket?
His actual bowling performance is not as bad as his figures suggest ... he is troubling both Kallis and Amla ... luck runs out some time or the other ... just gotta be patient ;-)
 
Whippy said:

Oh I know...but why damange your reputation and act stupid?

Top edge for four and goes right over gully. We have to take our half chances. 93-3
 
That ball bounced quite a bit from a good length. Hafeez tried his best, couldn't get his hands to it.
 
Kaneria looks a shadow of his former self. He's bowling some alright overs but just doesn't get wickets. Sami was dropped after subjecting Pakistan fans to this for too long and the bad luck excuse just doesn't sit with me for either of them.

My reputation on the internet is of no importance to me.

there very few spinners in the world who better record then kaneria.
 
Kallis just gonna block the stumps now with Kaneria bowling around.

That's more to do with the world being full of medicore spinners than him being any good.
 
Whippy said:
or like Richie Banaud would say ' Joel Garner standing on Joel Garner's shoulders' :>

Well to be fair...it just went over Hafeez. Had Garner been on Garners shoulders...Garner on top would get rocked in the shin.
 
Danish is beating the bat and had 1 or 2 close shouts go against him so i don't think we can complain too much.

Then so Warne is another medicore spinner right?

Will you just shut up and comment on the match? Your duels with Easa and your rants in general do not belong in this thread. Comment on the match Shabash.

So did Sami in many of his spells and you all wanted him buried.

I am not even remotely a Sami fan, but it's an interesting point.

Hasn't Warne now retired or something? I didn't know I was supposed to count retired international spinners in my spinners list.

erm,well it doesnt stop england fans getting excited abt monty.

Sami also held back alot of pacers. We really do not have any other spinner that looks decent for tests (Rehman is a one day bowler to me).

Monty's ok though. He has got out some of the best players of spin in the world and has a five-fer at Perth which just doesn't happen for spinners, even Warne. We haven't seen a lot of him, but the potential is there.

DOn't generalize like that...we have better fast bowlers than M Sami so doesn't matter if he beats the bat or eats the bat he will stay out of the test team!

No personal abuse please. :26:
 
just another 100 runs needed. SA game now, we needed quick wickets.
 
four more 99-3. 100 to win, psychological advantage in SA favour. A bit of reverse....wouldnt be bad to try Rana?
 
This is like when two people whisper about you in a foreign language on the bus. :D
 
100 up for SA! Looks inevitable now....and i am going to sleep soon.

Exactly. But the problem is, ke tu agar mujhe kabhi bus mein mil gaya to main tujhe itnay mukkay maroon gaa ke tu kabhi bus nahi lega dobara apni zindagi mein. You dig?
 
Amla almost gives Kaneria a return catch
